Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is the world-famous wine producer that enjoys an almost mythical reputation amongst collectors and consumers. Based in the village of Vosne-Romanée, DRC is jointly owned by two families, the de Villaine and the Leroy, with Alexandre Bernier in place as cellar master following the retirement of Bernard Noblet in 2018. The estate has the monopole of two grand cru vineyards, including the eponymous Romanée-Conti, which produces this flagship cuvée from 1.8 hectares of old vines. This release is from the successful 1993 vintage, offering wines of structure and rich, ripe black fruit.

The 1993 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru was picked on September 27 at just 14.87hl/ha. It is certainly a bit funky at first with suggestions of TCA. Instinct tells me it just needs time to breathe and sure enough, after two hours it is quite a beautiful wine. It is blessed with an ethereal bouquet, beautifully defined yet reserved compared to other vintages. Scents of raspberry preserve, damp undergrowth (wet moss) with subtle hints of fresh tobacco and cedar all combined so effortlessly. The palate is extremely well balanced with sublime tannins, maybe a little foursquare yet precise on the finish. This is drinking so well now, but based on this bottle, do not be afraid to decant. A very capable Romanée-Conti, though I might have expected more given how this vintage has blossomed in recent years. 3,600 bottles produced. Tasted at the Romanée-Conti dinner at the Connaught Hotel. Neal Martin1st April 2019
